More Info
The email address or U.S. mobile number may already be enrolled with Zelle® at another bank or credit union. Comerica Web Banking will provide you with steps to move your enrollment over to Comerica. If you have any questions, we’re always here to help.
You can send money to any business or individual that is enrolled or will enroll in Zelle®1 at their financial institution.
Whether you use Zelle® with a business account or a consumer account, Zelle® uses the same network to initiate payments to small businesses and consumers. Consumers who are already enrolled with Zelle® through their banking app don’t need to do anything different to send money to a small business. The experience is slightly different for small businesses, as small businesses cannot currently send payments to or receive payments from consumers who are only enrolled in the Zelle® app.1
Comerica small business customers are not charged any fees for using Zelle®. Transaction fees may apply depending on the account type.
All business checking, savings and money market investment accounts are currently eligible to send and receive money with Zelle®.1 Note that sending money with Zelle® from your savings account or money market account counts toward the six free transfers or withdraws per month.
No, Zelle® does not integrate directly with accounting software at this time. However, since Zelle® is connected to your bank account, you can see all Zelle® transactions in Comerica Web Banking and download a report to integrate into your existing software. To download your transactions from Web Banking, go to the Accounts tab and Export Transactions, and select the account, date range, and report format.
There are a few ways you can encourage your customers to pay you with Zelle®:
Confirm with your recipient that they have enrolled with Zelle® at their financial institution. Also confirm that you entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile number for your recipient. Still having trouble? We’re always here to help.
Neither Comerica nor Zelle® offers purchase protection for payments made with Zelle® - for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.
Keeping your money and information safe is a top priority for Comerica. When you use Zelle® within our online banking or mobile app, your information is protected with the same technology we use to keep your Comerica account safe. When you send with Zelle® in Comerica Web Banking or Comerica Mobile Banking app, a one-time passcode (OTP) request is required to help protect your security. These SMS (text) or email message messages will now contain:

Any existing toll-free numbers that are already registered with the Zelle Network® will be restricted the next time the user logs in.
